hi, i work with licensing contracts on a daily basis. i *DO NOT* have a legal background in Intellectual Property, but my boss does and after working with her for 3yrs here's my two cents:

1) things that are normal in this clause imo:
having the rights to use artists' images for use on social media, in press, exhibitions, on printed materials (magazines, exhibition flyers, etc)--anything that promotes Rodeo and consequently the artist's work (whom, the clause should mention but does not, is ALWAYS credited at a bare minimum. I'm sure Rodeo would credit the artists, though under this clause they are not legally obliged to).

⚠️ things that concern me in thread

let's see if @rodeodotclub comments on this

This isn’t my first Rodeo. This licensing clause is shit for artists and rehashing much of the worst of web2. To make this less opaque - once you upload, Rodeo can use, reproduce, and distribute your work in any way they see fit, for as long as they want, anywhere in the world,… https://t.co/dWaiG9akYH

@amadon This is industry standard. Open to new standards if they're widely adopted, but I'm personally not going to spend legal cycles reinventing the wheel. We're focused on building.
